Sunday night Jeff, Bryan, Melanie, and I went to True Love and hung out for a while, then proceeded to come back to Jayme's place where we played Taboo for a while. Jeff and I kicked Bryan and Melanie's asses. hehe ( Read more... )

sad, board games, depressed, family

I'm so sorry to read that you aren't feeling very chipper. I wish I was there to try and brighten things up. I'll send you a hug atleast. Hug sent. Did it make a smidgen of a difference? Hope so.
I'm feeling much better now, but while I was getting an EEG done yesterday I had a small seizure, or whatever the heck it is I suffer from now and again. The nurse said it was good I had one during the test because it might help determine what's going on in my messed up head. The results will take about a week before they're analyzed and returned to my doctor. Then I'll probably need to get a CAT scan done. I guess it means very limited alcohol consumption, if any, for a while. :-( Well I sure don't want that to put a damper on my summer plans. I've just been checking out flights and car rentals on expedia.ca. I think I just might fly instead of drive all the way down. A return flight from Edmonton to Ontario, CA would cost a little under C$500 return, and a car rental for 10 days would be another C$270. That really wouldn't be that much more than what I would probably have to pay just for my gas if I drove.
My plan as of this moment is to fly out on the 10th of July and return on the 20th. I figure I could visit my friend and his family for a few days, then travel about a bit, and finally spend a few more days at the end with them. But, I also might hold off for a week because I would probably then have a place to crash and maybe store my car in Edmonton (the principal of our school just bought a house there).
I need to head home and grab a bite. I'll chat with you later.
Please, please, please, let me get what I want this time.
Take care my little buddy.

Hehe, I appreciate your well wishes and all. Thank you. :-)

I'm glad to hear that you're feeling weel, and I hope that your tests reveal what exactly is wrong.

Flying down sounds like a good bet -- it's also a lot more convenient in that you won't have to spend so much time alone on the road.

Did you get the food you hoped for? :-P

So glad to hear from you. It had been a while and I was really getting worried because of what I was reading in your journal. There have been quite a few times when I've cried for no apparent reason also. Loneliness perhaps, or a feeling of not having control of my life, I'm not real sure.

You lost me for a minute when you asked if I got 'the food I hoped for'. I guess I should have left a line between the food statement and the Morrisey quote, or used quotation marks to make it more apparent. There really wasn't suppose to be a connection between the two. Certainly not a conscious one anyway. Or did you realize this and are just being cute? - Not that you need be any cuter. :-)

I watched the movie "12 Angry Men" last night, a 1950's movie with a shload of top actors - E.G. Marshall, Jack Klugman, Henry Fonda, etc. Even though the outcome of the movie seemed apparent quite early on, the acting ability of these men kept be glued to the set.

As I had a wicked headache most of the day yesterday, I didn't get the chance to go golfing. I will try to make up for that today. Oh yeah, I bought a new set of clubs last week. I like them a lot. If I could just learn how to use them better I'd be pleased.

It's that 'anyway' time again. I'll chat with you later. Take care of yourself.

Thank you for your concern. I'm sorry that it's taken me a while to get around to responding to your comments.

I think I misunderstood what you were saying ... you had said you were going to grab a bite, and then followed that with the "let me get what I want this time" line (I assumed that was in reference to not always getting the food you wanted when the chef isn't around at that restaurant, or something like that).

I haven't seen 12 Angry Men in years -- but it is a good film.

A new set of clubs? *Jealous again* I sold my clubs a while back, and need to pick a new set up sometime. However, my first priority is a new car within the next few months ...
